PRIME Minister Liz Truss has said she slept well while the UK economy faced turmoil sparked by her government’s mini budget.
In a series of BBC interviews on Thursday morning, Truss defended the Tories’ tax-slashing policies – arguing she had to take “urgent action” to help grow the economy amid “global” challenges.
It came despite the pound plunging to record levels, the IMF issuing a warning over the plans and the Bank of England taking emergency action to buy up government bonds as the UK faced “crisis territory”.
